Necromancer's Evolutionary Traits Chapter 199

[ Episode 199. Blackmail, trade and misunderstanding ]

“Original sin? What is it?”

Without changing a single expression on my face, I turned to her and asked again.

I never imagined that Fione would know the existence of Original Sin, but for now, she responded calmly.

“I don’t think you will know. We are already half convinced.”

“I really don’t know what you are talking about. What is original sin?”

“Adrias Cromwell. No matter how much I think about why you suddenly became so strong, it can only be explained by the existence of original sin.”

“I became stronger because of my unique constitution. And call me senior properly, Pione.”

I deliberately pointed out the absurd part.

I said this in the hopes that this would arouse even a little less suspicion, but apparently she had made up her mind.

“Originally, I tried to take a slow approach, but because of the war, the family’s situation became urgent. So I want to make a deal with you.”

Seeing her talk assuming that I already had original sin, I knew there was little point in pretending.

In fact, whether I had original sin or not, that didn’t matter.

“transaction?”

“Are you going to participate in this war?”

“I don’t know what you want. I will do it once.”

“Then let me be your representative.”

Deos talked about the assignment of the person in charge a while ago. Is it related to that?

But secondly, why do you want to be in charge?

“If you do that, I won’t report it to the imperial palace.”

“I don’t know what report you are posting.”

“The fact that you are a warlock and the report that you have original sin.”

Aside from original sin, did you infer that I am a warlock?

Or is there any definitive information?

I got a headache from a completely unexpected person.

Of course I’m going to deny that, but if she goes around the neighborhood talking about it, things will get bigger.

But if I agree to that deal here, it’s like admitting that I’m a black magician.

In the future, that guy was likely to be concerned about that fact.

“Please, please. You just need to take me with you.”

“You want me to take you to war when you accuse me of being a warlock?”

“all right. Then I will also tell you my weakness. That would be a fair deal, right?”

Fione caught her breath, checked her surroundings again, and muttered in a small voice.

“The Ardi family is dealing with the warlock coven. Among them, I have a lot of connection with Fade’s faction in particular.”

This is some surprising information.

Certainly, if this information is known to the public, the Marquis of Ardi will walk the path of downfall.

But that gave her the confidence to know who I was.

This means that each of them is holding on to the other’s weaknesses.

“how is it? Is this enough to believe me?”

“Are you going to listen to that straight away? And again, I don’t know what original sin is and I’m not a warlock.”

“Yes yes. all right. I know it’s not, so let’s make a deal.”

She pointed to the oncoming train and said.

“Let’s go to the senior’s room first. We talk about it in more detail there. how is it?”

“What more details? I have nothing more to say.”

The train arrived and I got on.

Pione glared at me without getting on the train with a murderous expression and said,

“I entered this academy to spy on you. It was originally unplanned. If you show uncooperative behavior like this, I really have no choice but to report to the imperial palace. It’s the only way for the Ardi family to survive.”

Unlike a moment ago, the awkwardness disappeared and the sincerity was contained.

Whether the information he knew was true or not, he showed a willingness to report for real.

“ha. ride.”

Eventually I had to take a step back.

I don’t know why the hell she wants to be with me, but if what she just said is true, it really hurts.

And the credibility of her words is that she has never been admitted to Rodlen Academy in the game.

Perhaps her words that she entered the school to spy on me were true.

“Good idea.”

Seeing Pione’s expression change quickly and smile with a smile, it reminded me of some people who played spy roles in modern times.

In terms of level, modern characters are technically much more sophisticated and superior, but it is true that the masked expression reminds them of them.

“The door closes. Ride fast.”

A completely unexpected problem arose, but rather than trying to wrap my head around it, I thought about how to solve it without any problems.

It seemed like it was an established fact that I had to take her to the battlefield…

‘I’ve already found out that she’s a warlock, so there’s no need to hide it.’

The reason I can go to war with confidence is only because of the fact that I am a necromancer.

He had already experienced the war against the Orcs in Grandis Kingdom, so he fully realized its strength.

Unlike the others, Pione already knows it, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t hide it

…

“What?”

“you.”

I sighed and thought again.

After a while, the train arrived at the station near the dormitory, and Fione and I entered the dormitory together.

Of course, the dormitories for each gender were thoroughly separated, and students always solved these problems with shortcuts and tricks.

“Ah, senior was a wizard, right?”

I neatly removed her presence using magic.

In addition, the alarm magic that should have sounded when someone who is not registered in the dormitory entered the dormitory was also lightly neutralized.

And when I entered the room, Fione naturally put her butt on the bed.

“It’s neat, as expected. It’s a room that fits your image perfectly.”

“Pione. First of all, I’m thinking of allowing you to be my manager. It’s annoying, but your family looks in danger, so I’ll help you this time.”

“oh. Be kind.”

“Don’t be so sarcastic. You haven’t forgotten that you’re in the position you’re asking for, right?”

“Isn’t it because you’re nervous that your identity will be found out, too? In fact, if I hadn’t met my senior a while ago, I was just thinking of reporting right away. Maybe your senior’s luck is better?”

“Again, I have no idea what you are talking about.”

“Feel free to pretend. I’ve heard everything from Fade anyway.”

Fade this baby.

Are you trying to keep me from growing by swallowing Morn’s faction?

To be honest, I don’t know what’s going on with Hegel at the meeting, so I don’t know what he’s thinking.

But what is certain is that he sold my information.

It was one of the taboos of the assembly to inform the outside of the information of the assembly members.

“done. I’m not sure if it’s a fade or what, so let’s hear the reason.”

“Why?”

“I don’t have to know why you want to follow me like that. What about the family story?”

“It’s simple. I don’t know what you think, but actually, this war is a little behind. And my family in the north will soon be in the forefront.”

She had said that she was thirsty after talking there.

When I poured water on her shameless words, she quenched her throat and continued.

“My father has a message. It was said that barbarians were stronger than expected and that if things continued like this, our family would be torn apart. To prevent this, I had to offer a deal to His Majesty the Emperor.”

“A deal with His Majesty the Emperor?”

“yes. Actually, that was my idea. It’s a plan I came up with.”

daring guy.

Is it because they don’t know what kind of emperor the emperor is?

They probably don’t even know that the emperor has a deal with the warlocks.

“Senior, His Majesty is more interested in you than you think. Probably because of original sin. However, since there is no known information or how original sin works, I am just being careful. It would be a big deal if the original sin disappears when the senior dies.”

From what I said, it seemed that the emperor had already made it a fait accompli that I had original sin.

There’s still a lot of work to be done, but it’s making even the emperor nervous.

As I listened without answering, Pione continued to speak.

“So this time, I’m going to bring you a bargain.”

“A bargain?”

“yes. I will follow my seniors to the battlefield and become a watcher for His Majesty the Emperor. On this condition, I will ask you to remove the family from the vanguard.”

“Do you think you can make a deal with just that?”

“As expected, you don’t know, senior. the value you have.”

She smiled sinisterly.

Well, if it’s natural, it’s a natural thing.

I am the one who possesses the ‘original sin’, the final key to unlocking the world of the gods that the emperor desires.

Without original sin, all other sins are meaningless.

“Anyway, this is it.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but in the end, are you saying that the Ardi family is safe in return for watching over me?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“I get it. Instead, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“On the battlefield, take care of yourself.”

“of course. I guess you don’t even know that much?”

“No you don’t know.”

I looked her in the eye and said seriously.

“War is a real monster.”

Even though the new semester started, the atmosphere at the academy was vicious.

The situation on the front lines, which finally began to spread, was fiercer than expected, and the news of the deaths of many people spread instead of the spring breeze.

And finally, the recruiting officer arrived at the academy as well.

“Thank you very much to all the students who stood up for Rodlene.”

The recruiting officer, Count Eudy Carompe, commander of the 3rd Guards, greeted me.

The fact that he, who is also famous as an Auror Master, came in person, made many students who responded to the recruitment inflamed with fighting spirit.

“Is it true? Director Eudy came in person!”

“If we do well, can’t we catch the captain’s eyes and enlist as royal knights?”

Diene, who watched the scene, sighed.

“Do these guys know if we’re going to practice at the academy right now?”

“It’s better than being depressed.”

Yurihi smiled bitterly and joined us.

Next to them were Vivian and Lucia.

“Are you really okay, sister?”

“huh.”

“We will be together for a short while and we will be assigned under each family. But my sister…”

“It’s okay. I think it’s a good experience.”

Vivian answered silently.

Diene, who overheard their conversation, said with a slightly worried expression.

“Vivian. I’m sorry that I seem to be hitting candles, but my father said that the situation on the battlefield is not good. Would you rather go with me?”

“thank you. It’s okay though.”

Vivian smiled faintly and shook her head.

The party, who read the unbreakable stubbornness in that appearance, simply sighed.

“At a time like this, where did that monstrous senior go?”

Lucia found Adrias, who had not yet appeared at the rendezvous point.

I had already heard that he was participating in the war, so even after time passed, I felt sick to see him invisible.

“uh? Isn’t that Adrias?”

At that time, Yurihi looked somewhere and gestured.

Everyone’s eyes turned to her words, and they could see that Adrias was with someone.

“Who is that guy next to Adrias?”

I couldn’t hear it because it was far away, but a female engineer from the Faculty of Engineering was chattering next to Adrias.

Adrias just listened without answering, but it looked like the two of them were together.
